With the sun peaking through the clouds, Edker Ivy waited in the line to cast her ballot Tuesday at the Oxford One voting station at 10:46 a.m.
A 61-year-old retired Oxford native, Ivy was ready to cast her ballot in the election. She had been waiting all morning for her daughter to come pick her up.
“I was at home, and my daughter came and got me. Now I get to vote,” Ivy said.
The 2016 Presidential Election has been viewed as a one-of-a-kind election. Many have said it’s unlike any other based on how the candidates have handled themselves throughout their campaigns.
Looking at her phone, Ivy laughed when asked about her views on this election.
“This has been a strange one, but I’m going to vote. I’ve been voting since I’ve been able to vote,” Ivy said.
Ivy knew who she was voting for, but she declined to share.
Ivy’s daughter Harris waited in line for 15 minutes before entering and casting her vote for the election. Mother and daughter left the building with their “I Voted” stickers.
